Simplified views of meta model entities of data objects

A non-transitory computer program product comprising a machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one programmable processor, cause the at least one programmable processor to perform operations comprising:

• determining, using a distribution function calculated for each data element of a plurality of data elements available for use in executing a business process in an object-based software platform, a usage frequency ranking of the plurality of data elements;
• identifying, based on the usage frequency ranking, a plurality of subsets of most frequently used data elements of the plurality of data elements, each subset of the plurality of subsets comprising a fraction of the plurality of data elements based on a threshold level of complexity;
• receiving a selection of a desired complexity setting, the desired complexity setting corresponding to the threshold level of complexity of one of the plurality of subsets;
• and
• displaying, in the user interface, only the data elements included in the subset with the corresponding level of complexity.
